Hi, Brad, It's been a long while since I hve used Talks, and thought sighted assistance was needed to set date and time out of the box. Please explain, for instance, should I get a Nokia N96 for my husband from Ebay, I power up the phone, how can I install Talks without sighted assistance. Would be great to know. Thanks in advance.

No you do not need sighted help to install talks as long as you know what symbian version is on the phone. -----Original Message----- From: Talks [mailto:talks-boun...@talksusers.com] On Behalf Of Judy Jones Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2015 12:50 AM To: Talks Mailing List Subject: Re: [Talks] Android phones with buttons Thanks so much for your message. I thought your observations were the case. Too bad. I was talking with a younger person just this past week who is not enthrawled with touch screens either. Do you think Talks has a future or will it also become a thing of the past? Correct me if I am wrong, but if memory serves, sighted help is still needed to install Talks, especially when getting a new phone that needs time and date set. I've gotten too spoiled with my Android with TalkBack built in. Thanks.

However, they are equipped with touch screens, as well. They have slide-out keyboards. And yes, phones with buttons are becoming a thing of the past. My guess would be that in another five or maybe ten years, you will not be able to find phones with a physical keyboard or keypad, anymore. I think it’s sad, personally, because my grandparents adore their flip phones and have no use for touch screen devices and all they can do. They simply want the phones for texting, calling, and possibly, picture-taking. But I know that some Androids do have slide-out keyboards still.
